- Working Notes
-
Bullseye sheet is available in 2mm(thin) or 3mm thickness.
The Handy sheet in 3mm is approximately 280 x 250 x 3mm (the dimensions may vary slightly depending on the sheet)

Colours That Strike
Many glasses that Bullseye produces appear pale or even colourless in their cold form but “strike” or mature to a target colour when fired to the right temperature. These styles are marked with the symbol above.
Not recommended for Stain Glass or Mosaics as Kiln required to achieve colour shown
Compatible with COE090.
-
Striker
This style may not reveal (strike to) its target colour until fired.
Cold Characteristics
Colour variations common from red-orange to terracotta. Frequently lightly streaked and with yellow mottling on the back of the single-rolled sheet.
Working Notes
A cadmium/selenium glass. It can react with lead-bearing glasses or overglazes. Possible reactions with 001311, 001215. Much colour variation is typical upon firing. If a specific colour is important, always test it before beginning the project. Use glasses from the same dates. Do not assume that sheets of the same colour when cold will fire identically.
This style is unsuitable for kiln casting because it can become incompatible when held at high temperatures for an extended period. It may also become incompatible in instances where processes exceed the parameters of the test for compatibility. Testing is recommended when heat work exceeds these parameters.
